On HN we are not supposed to accuse people of shilling but I see a steady drumbeat of low-brow populist evironmental advocacy links on this site every single day. Often the pieces are not even scientifically justified. At what point does this specific genre of "general interest" posts become disproportionate? This after all is supposed to be an IT tech start up focused site.
